Today in History: First issue of ‘Sports Illustrated' released
Today is Saturday, Aug. 16, the 228th day of 2025. There are 137 days left in the year. Today in history: On Aug. 16, 1954, the first issue of 'Sports Illustrated' was released. Also on this date: In 1777, American forces won the Battle of Bennington in what was considered a turning point of the Revolutionary War. In 1812, Detroit fell to British and Native American forces in the War of 1812. In 1861, President Abraham Lincoln issued Proclamation 86, which prohibited the states of the Union from engaging in commercial trade with states that were in rebellion — i.e., the Confederacy. In 1896, gold was discovered in Canada's Yukon Territory, sparking the 'Klondike Fever' that would draw tens of thousands to the region in search of fortune. In 1948, baseball legend Babe Ruth died in New York at age 53. In 1962, the Beatles fired their original drummer, Pete Best, replacing him with Ringo Starr. In 1977, Elvis Presley died at his Graceland estate in Memphis, Tennessee at the age of 42; forty-one years later, in 2018, singer Aretha Franklin, known as the 'Queen of Soul,' died in Detroit at the age of 76. In 1978, James Earl Ray, convicted assassin of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., told a Capitol Hill hearing he did not commit the crime, saying he'd been set up by a mysterious man called 'Raoul.' In 1987, people worldwide began a two-day celebration of the 'Harmonic Convergence,' which heralded what believers called the start of a new, purer age of humankind. In 2014, Missouri Gov. Jay Nixon declared a state of emergency and imposed a curfew in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, where police and protesters repeatedly clashed in the week since a Black 18-year-old, Michael Brown, was shot to death by a white police officer. In 2020, lightning sparked the August Complex wildfire in California. More than 1,600 square miles — greater than the size of Rhode Island — would burn over the following three months.

Tristan Rogers, who played dashing spy Robert Scorpio in 'General Hospital,' dies at 79
Tristan Rogers, the Australian actor behind the magnetic Robert Scorpio on 'General Hospital,' died Friday after a battle with lung cancer, according to his manager. He was 79. In an email to The Times, Rogers' manager Meryl Soodak said his client was 'a family man' who is survived by his wife, two children and a grandson. '[He was] loyal, kind and loved his role of Scorpio,' Soodak said. Rogers' signature commanding voice and poised bravado made Scorpio a fan favorite on the long-running soap opera, and became his most recognizable role. As the enemy-turned-close-friend of star character Luke Spencer (played by Anthony Geary), Rogers appeared in some of the most memorable moments of the show's run. Read more: 10 long-running soap operas In November 1981, Scorpio stood by as Luke and fellow star character Laura wed in front of 30 million viewers, still the highest-rated hour in American soap opera history. In true soap opera fashion, Scorpio would allegedly die a dramatic and fiery death in an explosion in South America in 1992, only to return alive for a short stint in 2006. Through every iteration of his "General Hospital" career, Rogers embraced Scorpio's status as an '80s TV icon. "I think this character will follow me to my grave," Rogers told the New York Times in 2006. Read more: Crying shame for fans of soaps Rogers was born June 3, 1946, in Melbourne, Australia. Out of high school, he played in a rock band with friends and began taking up modeling roles, he recalled in an interview. For 'extra money,' he acted in small TV and soap opera roles in Australia in the late '60s and '70s, including stints in the shows 'Bellbird,' 'Number 96' and 'The Box.' Early in his career, his Australian accent deterred casting directors from booking him for American shows, Rogers recalled in a 2022 interview. However, in 1980, he found himself auditioning for what was supposed to be a small, single-episode role on "General Hospital." This caught the eye of Gloria Monty, the show's visionary producer, who asked Rogers to stay on as a recurring character. Rogers was key to shaping the character of Scorpio, from his name to his risk-taking bravery, on what would eventually become the longest-running daytime soap opera in American television history, according to Guinness World Records.

[Scorpio] took everyone by surprise, he looked different, he sounded different, he conducted himself in a different way and the public latched onto this right away. And so all of a sudden, away we went,' Rogers said in a radio interview earlier this year. While the show was set in a New York hospital, the late 80s saw it shift focus into an action adventure storyline that heavily featured Scorpio as an agent of the fictional World Security Bureau, or WSB. Broadcaster ABC notes that the change kept the attention of viewers and contributed to the continuation of the show's success, as spies and agents created complex and popular mystery storylines within the "General Hospital" universe. According to the New York Times, the second week after Rogers' character was revived in 2006, 'General Hospital' was the No. 1 daytime drama among young women, drawing larger-than-average audiences back to the show. Rogers also acted in the series "The Young and the Restless," "The Bay," and "Studio City," as well as voice-acting in the Disney animated film "The Rescuers Down Under." Genie Francis, who played Laura Spencer in 'General Hospital,' said of Rogers on X, 'My heart is heavy. Goodbye my spectacular friend. My deepest condolences to his wife Teresa and their children. Tristan Rogers was a very bright light, as an actor and a person. I was so lucky to have known him.' Kin Shriner, also an actor on the show, added in a video posted on X, 'I met Tristan 44 years ago at the Luke and Laura wedding. We were stashed in a trailer and I was taken by his Australian charm. Over the years we've worked together … we always had fun. I will miss Tristan very much.' In one of his last interviews, Rogers reflected on the joy of his acting career. 'I've had a good time of it,' he said. Sign up for Screen Gab, a free newsletter about the TV and movies everyone's talking about from the L.A. Times.
